Spools require maintenance a lot more often, they are more finicky with the amount of lube you use(too much/little=bad) and their performance dips quicker/more severely between servicing. You can go a LONG time on an ego without performing maintenance and the worst you'll get is a larger fps spread over the chrono. Plus, I hate fsdo. HATE it. I do miss the smoothness of spools though. Macdev has been making it hard to not to go back...

I love both. I have owned an ego for the past several years and it shoots darts and is super smooth. So I tried the geo as well just for fun; likewise they are great markers to shoot. Not as efficient, but that is expected with spool guns. Plus they are a bit quieter which is perfect when playing tournament ball.

Good question! Geo 3 really is an awesome marker, but just finished a trade for an Ego 11. Try both and you will come to your own conclusion. I personally believe that only way to truly answer your question is to own both and try on the field. Try one trade try the other then trade back if necessary! Unless you have a bank of cash then just buy both!
